Ash on 22:57 - Aug 2 by londonlisa2001 | I think we're just sending a message to the agents - we won't be backed into a corner. May be a first sign of this new 'financial muscle' . He'll go. The deal will be sweetened a bit and he'll go. A powerful message though. We're prepared to call his bluff and keep him for two years if necessary and give up £10m. Very strong statement from the new owners - we wouldn't have done it before. This is exactly the way clubs like Southampton have behaved for ages, which is why they get more money for their players.

Agree. Although the offer is probably not a straight £10 million at the moment. I would guess it's probably nearer £7 million with add ons e.g. Nif Everton qualify for Europe, win a cup or league, or Ash is the leading goal scorer in the premier league etc. Which seems to be the norm these days. Suspect that it will be a case of changing those sort of details and maybe even how the payments are structured as we haven't gone as far as saying "not for sale". | | | |

Ash on 17:17 - Aug 2 by ItchySphincter | Hallelujah! Agree completely. 10M for Ash is a no brained so as long as our lot give Jordi a break for the first few weeks we've got a solid pairing at centre half on our hands. It's going to be like upgrading from a Mercedes Benz to a Bentley. |

That's cruel.......funny, but cruel! In the circumstances in which we find ourselves, that can be classified as ''black humour'. | | | |

I assume the Bentley in question was David, not the motor vehicle that Darran owns | |
